Conversations with James Baldwin by James Baldwin
5.0
On James Baldwin, to borrow from Mary Oliver: “I never met any of my friends, of course, in a usual way—they were strangers, and lived only in their writings. But if they were only shadow-companions, still they were constant, and powerful, and amazing. That is, they said amazing things, and for me it changed the world.”
So on James Baldwin: An intellectual landing point, whose coherence and long-sighted contemplation, whose way of knowing and moving, connect me to the place I can be, human, where I can reassemble and re-articulate my private points of view, for my own place to speak from, and then live in the world. In love.
